Tuesday Top 5
Here's another TT5 for all y'alls out there! Enjoy!1. Rebel Bite! So AJ told me about a new rockin' food truck we had to try called Rebel Bite, and it was coming to our neighborhood food truck lot! What was even better is that each day, Rebel Bite posts a trivia question or two on their twitter. First person to reply with the right answer gets some FREE grub! Ummm yes please!!! I really like FREE DELICIOUS FOOD! So I stalked twitter all day and bam! I won! Hooray! So AJ and I rolled up over there and ordered some deliciousness. AJ got the Karl B. Marx, a beefy grilled cheese. I got the cioppino (yum) and the roasted garlic eggplant grilled cheese (double yum). Rebel Bite made me a verrrrrry happy camper! Y'all should follow them and play their challenges! It's fun and the rewards are TASTY!2. Mexicali Taco Co Party! A few weeks ago, I wrote about Mexicali Taco and Co and how delicious it was. Last Saturday they threw a little party, and everyone who came down and ordered some grub got a free shrimp cocktail!!! Judging by the paragraph above, y'all should be aware that I love FREE DELICIOUS FOOD! So AJ and I hauled it to downtown and got our nom nom on! The free shrimp cocktail was so delicious it really should be on the menu permanently! But their quesadillas are also bomb, so I'm sure we'll be back again soon, free shrimp or not! ;)3. Carolyn's French Themed Engagement Party! So all my brides are awesome, but Carolyn who is getting married this fall has an extra special place in my heart! We hit it off since her very first email, and then the engagement session sealed the deal! This girl rocks! I was so stoked that she so generously invited AJ & I to her engagement party! Even better was that the party had a Springtime in Paris theme! J'adore la France!!! AJ and I had so much fun at the soiree, and we ate some delicious French food and got to meet all of Carolyn + Prescott's rad friends! So fun! I have a feeling the wedding will just be like hanging out with old buddies, which is RAD!4. Umami Burger. To be honest, I didn't love my Umami experience, but the place has been on my list of things to try for years now...so I figured I should write about it. I got the Portabello version of the signature Umami Burger, and yes it was dang tasty. It packed the punch with it's flavor for sure...but it was so small! And left me feeling so unsatisfied! We ordered the beet salad with our burgers and though I do love beets I was a bit disappointed in the salad itself. There were only 4 thinly shaved beet slices, the rest was arugula which was barely dressed. It was too bitter for me. I think where we mainly went wrong was not ordering enough sides like fries and onion rings. Oh well....perhaps I will try it again and feel better about it. Or perhaps not. I don't like leaving places hungry!!!5. New GAGA Songs! Eeeeep! With Lady Gaga's new album debuting next Monday, she's been releasing a whole bunch of awesome previews! As you know I love my Gaga, and I love getting these tastes of the new album! My favorite songs that have been released this past week are "Edge of Glory" and "Marry the Night!" I think y'all should give them a listen... so I am leaving the clips below! Check it out!
